THEY ARE YOU.
The Germans passed a strict gun contol law in 1928, just before Hitler was voted in, in 1933.
Not really. Both were inspired by the English Bill of Rights of 1689.
I don't understand why conservatives don't reference the 1689 BoR more often.
It specifically returned the right to keep and bear arms to Protestants, who had recently been disarmed by a tyrant king. Of course, only those the government of the time thought reliable were given this right: Protestants and members of the upper classes.
Our BoR went a step farther and recognized that all people had the right to be armed.

Quite true. But the disproportion between the firepower of the patriot militia and that of the British army was a LOT less that between today's unorganized militia and a modern military force.
Or, it's quite the coincidence that we both pulled the same obscure quote at the same time.

the criminals are coming.
the crazies that shot up your kids, are coming. yes let’s stay disarmed so the next crazie has an easy time blowing away a bunch of people.
the crazies are not law abiding gun owners, this is the disconnect. all people with guns are not all automatically bad. they see people every day that have guns aned never know it.
gun owners who carry generally are nicer than average because they don’t want trouble - because whatever trouble they get into gets “while armed” added onto it.
Write Rep. John Lewis, D-Ga down on a Google search for images and you will see the problem right off.

WHY THE OBAMATRON LEFTISTS AND OTHER ANTI-CONSTITUTIONALISTS WANT GUN CONTROL
Found the following at http://www.grouchyoldcripple.com/
In 1929 the Soviet Union established gun control.
From 1929 to 1953, approximately 20 million dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
In 1911, Turkey established gun control.
From 1915-1917, 1.5 million Armenians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
Germany established gun control in 1938.
From 1939 to 1945, 13 million Jews, gypsies, homosexuals, the mentally ill, and others who were unable to defend themselves were rounded up and exterminated.
China established gun control in 1935.
From 1948 to 1952, 20 million political dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
Guatemala established gun control in 1964.
From 1964 to 1981, 100,000 Mayan Indians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
Uganda established gun control in 1970.
From 1971 to 1979, 300,000 Christians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
Cambodia established gun control in 1956.
From 1975 to 1977, one million educated people, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.
That places total victims who lost their lives because of gun control at approximately 56 million in the last century.
Since we should learn from the mistakes of history, the next time someone talks in favor of gun control, find out which group of citizens they wish to have exterminated.
